Description

June and Jennifer Gibbons were twins that shared a very unique bond.  They both refused to speak to other people, including their family.  The girls desperately wanted to be individuals and be separated, but they couldn't seem to live without each other.  They tried to vocalize their feelings for many years, but they knew that one twin had to die for the other to live.
